I like poppies.
I found this photo in Claire’s photobucket account (sorry Claire, i was snooping!). I really love it. I almost considered painting my bathroom that colour. But then I saw the paint chips (yep, went so far as to get chips!) under the vanity lights, and it hit me - I can’t do it! I can’t have a bathroom with pee-green walls. The reflection alone would be enough to make me look awful, let alone the feeling of… i don’t even know what.
Nevertheless, I do enjoy this colour combination, and now I’m going to show a few more poppies that make me happy.
Someday I’d like to have my own poppy-filled yard. No need to cut the grass.
Someday I will find someone who can love me as much as I love him. And not be afraid of the feelings that come with that love. And someday I will marry this person, and I will have simple, beautiful flowers like this.
I love this Poppeeeee too! He is my Fantastical French Fred (Alfred, formally).
And this is just cool. So are you. And so is Carrie, for coming up with colour inspiration for my bathroom. Thanks for all the comments and suggestions. I’ve decided to move out of my apartment instead.
Seriously!

I guess change is good to try to move past little things that may make you dwell on sad thoughts. But poppies are good because you liked them before your relationship and you can keep right on liking them. They are beautiful and if they cheer you then bring on more poppies! Hugs to you!

Ha! Snoop all you like. I save way too many pretty rooms for general inspiration. Also crafty inspiration and pretty artwork I like. Its my electronic inspiration book. Moving is exciting! I’m doing that myself in 2 weeks. And I’m already dreaming of a lavender bedroom!

Change is good! Moving is a big process but you’ll manage. It’s one more step to healing!!
(ps~In reference to photographing quilts, they are a b*tch to take photos of! I haven’t come up with anything that will take nicer pictures. I just keep snapping away and hoping I get a good one.)
